‘After a long absence, I put on a record of Bach, inhale
the fragrant earth in the garden, I think again
of poems and novels to be written and I return
to the silence of the morning rain.’

Pier Paolo Pasolini

Eight Poems for Ninetto, January 13, 1972

📷 Cecilia Mangini, 1958

I dream of lost
vocabularies that might express some of what/
we no longer can.

My love is a hundred
pitchers of honey.
